Abstract

The current researche aims to elucidate the existing differences when approaching the same theme related to dance in the heterogeneity of bodies in different environments. It drift´s apart of what methodological adjustments should be applied, so that the vocabulary list related to urban dances is better understood, and points out the difficulties or facilities of such adjustments in environments where there are the most varied types of bodies and needs to get around. The problematic of the study focuses on the heterogeneity of bodies in a school and non-school, environment to be considered in relation to the teaching of Urban Dances without losing the goal of a certain vocabulary pattern, affecting any, of the subdivisions of urban dances. And perhaps, with this focus, to understand how dance teaching can best be accomplished through the understanding of what types of bodies form and are formed in the respective subdivisions of Urban Dances. For this understanding, a body mapping is done in order to result in a body layout in each style within urban dances.
